Files

A file is a steel hand tool with a toothed surface for removing material and for smoothing and finishing metal, wood and other materials. In this collection you will find files in different shapes and cuts, for engineering, carpentry, maintenance and sharpening.

Types in the collection

• Engineers' files: flat, round, half-round and triangular, with or without handle (Stanley, Fervi, Vigor, Unifix, Efco).
• Diamond and needle files: in sets, for precision work (Fervi, Vigor).
• Chainsaw files: for sharpening the chain (Stanley, Husqvarna, Vigor).
• Contact files and rasps: for special uses (A.M.E.S.).

How to choose

Choose the shape to suit the job: flat for surfaces, round for holes and radii, triangular for corners. The length and the cut (coarse for removing a lot of material, smooth for finishing) make the difference, as does the presence of a handle, which makes use safer.

Every supply is by quotation: tell us the model, quantity and intended use and the AMES team will prepare a tailored offer.
